It feels like you're directing that at me, but I agree with you, so I'm not sure what tone that was written in

I don't agree:
Before if you chose not to hire someone, you'd be competing against better products from people who did hire someone. Hiring someone gave them a competitive advantage.
By removing the competitive advantage of hiring someone, you're destroying an entire career path, harming the economy and society in general.
I agree, except you're the one showing solidarity with the bourgeoisie.
AI is a too of the bourgeoisie to suppress the working class
Because that's a harm to society and economy.
It's gutting entire swaths of middle-class careers, and funneling that income into the pockets of the wealthy.
If you're a single-person startup using your own money and you can't afford to hire someone else, sure. That's ok until you can afford to hire someone else.
If you're just using it for your personal hobbies and for fun, that's probably ok
But if you're contributing to unemployment and suppressed wages just to avoid payroll expenses, there is a guillotine with your name on it.
I'd say that depends on how important data analysis is to the job of mechanical engineer, and the degree of help you get from chatgpt
Nearly nobody is arguing against using AI for personal fun.
People are arguing against AI destroying entire career segments without providing benefit to society, especially to those displaced. People are arguing against how it so easily misleads people, especially when used as a learning aid. People are arguing against the enormous resource usage.

I stumbled on this video like a decade ago, no idea how it has such low views. It's a gem.
Not sure if youre only asking Americans, but in case this is for everyone:
I'm doing pretty well.
Could probably scrape by for a year if my wife and I both lost our jobs.
Mainly lucked into success:
My boss from a summer job when I was in college knew the boss of an internship I was applying for, and put in a good word for me.
They hired me upon graduation, but went under shortly after, however a large company was on a hiring spree right at that time and I landed a job there with a hefty pay bump.
Then I got laid off there right as a local startup was on a hiring spree to increase their valuation because they were looking to be acquired by a major high-tech company, and they hired me, again with a hefty pay bump.
They got acquired, and I started working on a team based on San Francisco. Because wages here were so much lower than the bay area, they were throwing raises at me because it was pennies to them.
I've been there for over 10 years.
As long as AI doesn't make my job redundant, I'll be good for the foreseeable future.
I like purple, but in a kitchen it seems like a bad choice. It makes it look like a toy kitchen set, kinda.
And there is some kind of dichotomy about the floors that is off-putting. I love the look, but its like if it can't decide if it's trying to be elegant or bold, and it kinda doesn't pull off either. Like... The fake marble McMansion isn't a great vibe, but unique natural pattern with bold colors is cool af.
I also think capitalism is a race to the bottom, but I believe it is so because it subverts the value of labor. It's shit like AI that makes it a race to the bottom.
Then pay for the stock photo. There, an artist is being paid for their work. But realistically the little stuff you're talking about is the occupation of entire departments in megacorps.
